She felt a bit selfish, going to bed before 11pm--but she was going to take advantage of her good fortune. It was perfectly fine to carve out some time. She recalled Ororo' s ritual of communing with her plants--when she had her abilities and after they had been stripped away.

She fell asleep effortlessly into a dreamless sleep. Upon waking, that's when she became aware that something wasn't right. A sunbeam streaming in her room rousted her. She opened her eyes while still groggy and felt a cold shiver run down her spine. This wasn't her room. She jumped out of bed and went to the window. The grounds! The mansion was back in Westchester!

He can be the better person. It's his choices that define him, good and bad." He chuckled. "Erik knows many a thing that others might not."
Charles nodded his head slightly. "So, nothing different back home in your world. And nothing different here, that I can recall. When Logan came here, Erik and I had sent him back to change time, save it. He had a mission. His arrival here wasn't an accident." Charles frowned. "I'm sorry you were sent here against your will as it were."
